Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
To compare the time taken to meet the discharge criteria in the post anesthesia care unit (PACU) following the surgery between the two groups.Timepoint: parameters will be recorded starting from 0 mins to every half an hour until two hours

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
â??To determine highest level of block attained in patients receiving spinal anesthesia â??Compare the incidence of significant hypotension, bradycardia, hypertension, tachycardia â??Assess requirement for additional supplementation of anesthesia/analgesia â??Analyze complications related to general and spinal anesthesia in the intraoperative and postoperative period â??Analyze the technical problems encountered during the procedure of spinal anesthesia or general anesthesia Timepoint: parameters will be recorded starting from 1 minute followed by at 3,5,10,15,20,25,30,40,50,60,75,90,105,120 minutes
